Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project 2019 sponsor volunteer registration

Welcome to the Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project application site.

The 2019 Carter Work Project will be hosted by Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville in Nashville, Tennessee, October 6 – 11, 2019. We invite you to join President and Mrs. Carter and hundreds of volunteers as we help 20 Nashville families access affordable homeownership.

For over 35 years, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and former first lady Rosalynn Carter have traveled across the world with Habitat for Humanity and thousands of volunteers, donating their time and voices to build and improve homes alongside Habitat homeowners. Their time and effort helps raise awareness of the critical need for affordable homeownership, and how Habitat helps homeowners achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build a better life for themselves and their families.

Since 1984, Habitat for Humanity’s Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project has drawn 103,000 enthusiastic volunteers who have rolled up their sleeves to help build or improve homes in partnership with families in need of affordable housing. Together with the Carters, these volunteers have built, renovated or repaired 4,331 homes in 14 countries.
